As with all things tech, software development has been in a constant state of evolution since its infancy. Generative AI, however, has the potential to disrupt software development as we know it.
There are significant benefits offered by generative AI, but there are risks as well, including security risks. In its brief history, AI has generated buggy code, taken code from open source repositories without licensing considerations, and generated incorrect code.
In this webinar, you will learn
• What AI is and how it is used in the SDLC
• The ways AI is changing how software is being built
• The risks, drawbacks, and concerns of using AI
• How to benefit from AI while managing risks

How Generative AI is Changing the SDLC

A common adage states that “security is only as strong as its weakest link.” Penetration (pen) testing is meant to demonstrate this idea. Through administration of yearly pen tests, these entry points can be identified and patched, providing greater assurance in an application’s defense. 

A pen test is a simulated attack on your apps and infrastructure to find exploitable flaws and vulnerabilities. Expert testers use varying and ever-changing tools and techniques to find and demonstrate the business impacts of weaknesses in a system.  

In this webinar you will learn: 
- Definition and types of pen tests 
- The precautions you need to take before you start testing 
- Approaches to vulnerability discovery across applications 
- How (manual) pen testing fits in with automated tooling 
- Development of an example vulnerability
